My objective is to do a good job on every task that I am assigned by being efficient and by completing it on time and doing it accurately.
*explain why you decided to put the punctuations there and their rules.

As you have written the sentence, no punctuation is necessary. However, it is awkwardly worded with so many ands. It would be a better sentence if it read, "My objective is to do a good Job on every task that I am assigned by being efficient, by completing it on time, and by doing it accurately. The commas are necessary as this sentence is written because you have three items in a series. I hope this helps.
Chow!!

This sounds better. The sentence just kept going, you needed some rest and rythem. This sounds better I think.
My objective is to do a good job on all tasks that I am assigned; by being efficient, completing it on time and by doing it accurately I will achieve my goal.
* a semi colon, cause the the sentences are realted but could stand on there own
*commas, because it adds a break that is needed
*and a period cause it ends you thought.

i did it this way because you had a lot of words you didn't need, making it a run on sentence. i put punctuations in place of the words i got rid of and made it plural by changing it to them because every is plural and you need to follow up with a plural.

I would suggest rewriting the sentence:
My objective is to do a good job on every task that I am assigned by being efficient and by completing it accurately and on time.

Punctuation is a singular noun. Your question should be 'Does this sentence need any punctuation?'
there should be a comma after 'assigned' there should be another after 'efficient' and the word 'and' doesn't belong in there, and another comma after 'time'.
When you have a series of items, they are separated by commas, and only the last one begins with 'and' which signals to the reader that this is the caboose on the train.

This is a compound, run-on sentence that needs to be broken up.
